Hey guys,

Back with a little art for you folks. And it's Hidan! Drew this on a school paper and really liked the drawing, so I scanned it and colored it. However, during the coloring, I realized that I didn't really like it as much on the computer. The lines looked wrong and...it just didn't seem right. So I thought about just abandoning it as one of those that just wasn't for the computer. But then I decided that maybe it needed a more "hand-drawn" feel, like it had on paper.

So I set out to try, once again, a technique that I've been struggling with. Using the tablet to make lines for pictures I've already colored. It takes a while, and can be tedious...but I really think it looks better that way. I've started trying it on several pictures, but always thinking it looked too messy. But I look around and a lot of great artists' lines around here are a little bit messy, but you don't notice unless you look really close or try to look for it. So I figured, what the heck? They may be a little bit messy, but maybe it will still look alright. Although now you guys may be on the lookout for the messiness of my lines, since I mentioned it XD

Ah well. So yeah, just a picture of Hidan yelling the title at someone he's a) fighting or b) getting in a fight with. I'd have put in an exclamation point, but DA fears them like the plague. Come on and hurry up Hidan! When you and Kakuzu show up, I'll start watching Shippuden again!

Enjoy,

S'rac
